Every organism named by the Linnaeus system has a genus name and species name. Organism belong to a specific kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and most specifically, species. The Linnaeus system gives them a "first name" of their genus and a "last name" of their species. This system allows biologists from all over the world to call organisms by the same name, which gets rid of confusion.
